Question

Verify a x(b + c) = (a x b ) + (axc) for a = 5, b = -3, c = 2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

For LHS= a*(b+c)

Substituting the given numbers, we get

LHS=5*(-3+2)

LHS=5*(-1)

LHS=(-5).

For RHS= (a*b)+(a*c)

Substituting given numbers, we get

RHS=(5*-3)+(5*2)

RHS=(-15)+10

RHS=(-5).

LHS=RHS

Hence verified.
